Broken Heart Syndrome: Death of a Broken Heart
Thursday February 10th 2005, 5:00 pm
Filed under: Ordinary

A new article in the New England Journal of Medicine says that, mostly in women, a sudden emotional stress can cause heart failure. This is in healthy folks with no history of heart disease.

‘Scared to death’ and ‘died of a broken heart’ takes on more meaning to all of us now.

Take care (especially you sisters, mothers, grandmothers, and daughters out there).
